NotAnA4 won't turn over
Hey everyone!
having an issue, and i'm not sure where to turn, but hopefully someone can help?
i sold my Tartan with an A4 last summer and picked up an O'Day 272 that had been repowered with a rebuilt Volvo MD7A (diesel from the early '80s) a few years ago.
Wonderful sailing last year; engine was great when needed (waaaay more than my A4 had been, unfortunately). Boatyard winterized the motor.
They dropped it in the water yesterday, and i went up to get the motor running. It does not turn over. Not even clicking. Cockpit key operates; audible alarm sounds (normal), but not starter. Check connections at starter/solenoid, battery connections. All look ok.
- Batteries test above 12V....12.4?
- 12v tests across the solenoid (battery-connected post to other post)
- remote starter switch across those does nothing
- oddly, when key is in On position, using the remote starter silences the alarm, but does not work.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!!
